How To Make French Toast
Easy French Toast for Breakfast
French toast is a delicious breakfast dish.
It's not the breakfast I recommend as a daily routine, rather as a small luxury for yourself.
Sunday mornings are my French Toast mornings. It's quick enough to get together, just bread which has been soaked in egg and fried till golden. Then a leisurely coffee on the patio with the crossword.
French toast, Hong Kong style, is my reward to myself for a hard week's work.
French Toast Hong Kong Style
French Toast, Hong Kong style is made by quickly frying sliced bread dipped in beaten egg, and served with a slab of butter and topped with golden syrup. Then add whatever fruit is in season.
Absolutely self-indulgent!
Ingredients
- 4 Medium Sized Eggs
- 1 Knob of Butter
- 25 ml Milk
- Salt and Pepper
- French Bread
- Fresh Fruit
Instructions
- Slice up the french bread ready for dipping
- Melt a knob of butter in a frying pan to provide extra flavour and a non-stick surface
- While the butter is melting, crack the eggs into a mixing bowl and add to it the milk. Whisk the egg and milk up till the yolks are broken and the mixture goes a lovely golden colour
- Add a pinch of salt and pepper to the mix
- Take each slice of bread and dip it into the egg mixture until it is completely coated and has soaked up the egg
- Carefully place each slice of bread into the now hot frying pan
- After about 2 minutes flip each of the slices over to cook the other side
- Serve with slices of fresh fruits
Pain Perdu
Pain Perdu (Lost Bread) uses up stale bread - another delicious variant of French Toast.
You slice the hard bread on the bias and dip the slices into a mixture of egg, milk, sugar, cinnamon and vanilla. Pan-fry them in butter and serve dusted with powdered sugar and jam on the side.
